    Starting with Prismatic Evolutions, would every English set from now onwards have 3 different reverse holo patterns??
    R.I.P master set collectors

    What's next? Bring back 1st edition? Shadow and shadowless? Palworld TCG when?

    I feel bad for people who paid money to watch Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul. I watched it for free on YouTube the day after and I still feel like I got ripped off!

    I haven't seen that show for a long time. The problem is you need to know people in the world of business. The easiest way to become rich is to find a problem and create a solution. But there is an important factor: generate profit that is not at the expense of the wealthy class. Otherwise, no investors.

    For example, a cure for cancer will eliminate massive profits from private industries like pharmaceuticals and hospitals. Also, plenty of people who devote their life studying cancer will lose their job. It is asinine but think about the consequences of a cure. It is good for the majority of us but not for the wealthy and their employee. It does not surprise me private companies cherry pick their employee.

    I dunno... when there is cure for cancer, people who work in pharmaceuticals and hospitals and cancer research would simply move on to different jobs. It doesn't eliminate profits, rather the money just flows somewhere else.
    Kinda like how cashiers at Walmart don't lose their jobs to self-checkout machines, they just work other jobs, and Walmart doesn't suffer.

    How did people live before social media existed?? It blows my mind 🤯

    They went to arcade, movie theaters, bowling alley, or other places to hangout. In my opinion, its better but at the same time its good to save money. The benefit of social media to keep in touch with friends and families who are out of state/country. Everything has pros/cons, but it is very important not to overdo it.

    The majority of the population worked hard in the fields until supper, spent some family quality time, and went to bed.

    Why are some people worried about market crashes??
    When Walmart has a sale on Pokémon cards, players, collectors, and scalpers go crazy and hoard everything.
    But when the stock market goes "on sale", people panic. Why is that?

    Fear. They fear that the market will not recover and it is better to sell right away to avoid further loss.

    Ehh.. I don't think anyone became wealthy by panic selling but you are right.

    The covid lockdown actually forced me to open Pokémon packs AT HOME!!
    Charmaster:)
    Charmaster:)
    As opposed to opening them in the store one by one as you buy them?
    bbb888
    bbb888
    Yes, I have also opened packs in my car, at the library, outside in my friend's backyard, and other places.

    Music collabs we didn't know we needed:
    Jay-Z & Linkin Park - Numb/Encore
    Nelly & Tim McGraw - Over and Over
    Babymetal & Electric Callboy -

    I'm not familiar with any of these artists, but was the last song called "Top Percentage!"?
    bbb888
    bbb888
    The last song is the name of the Pokémon or something. If it was "Top Percentage", Youngster Joey would have to be featured on it Lol 😆
    You can check out all of these songs on YouTube.

    I had no idea McDonald's made a Japanese song!!! Can I say I'm lovin' it?

    Just overheard a kid say: "I have too many Pokémon cards! I literally throw them away, that's how much I have."
    OK kid, I get that you're too young to sell stuff online, but maybe your family can host a garage sale or you can trade with friends or someone can mow your lawn or shovel snow and you can pay them in Pokémon cards or you can donate them to me.
    No need to throw away your shiny Charizard GX bruh.

    I was just giving suggestions on different ways the kid could get rid of his excessive cards. I hope he sees this!

    Yes, some people stash bulk cards in boxes in a closet, but it's only a matter of time before they run out of space!
    Charmaster:)
    Charmaster:)
    Ah. Knowing the context definitely helps me understand the situation better. My guess is he will probably come back with an adult or try selling the cards somewhere else. And yes, the people who use bulk boxes will need to dedicate more and more space to storage as time passes.

    I really hope Nintendo Switch successor brings back 3D graphics and camera like the 3DS had. I truly miss them. Otherwise I don't see the point of having a successor.

    Of course my brain is smooth. Why would I want my brain to be wrinkled and old?? People use "smooth brain" like an insult but to me it's a compliment.

    OK, that's very informative, but I still want my brain muscle to be young and smooth like leather silk. I mean, you see how smooth and dope Psyduck is, right? Lol ?

    I never knew this existed! I wonder if they are going to make Koraidon.

    Not sure if they have the funds to make Koraidon, but Japan typically gets cool stuff like this. I should move to Japan.

    Why not use a separate spare phone for Temu only?? No photos, no contact list, no email, no other apps, no data plan, just Wi-Fi and Temu app only. This way, Temu cannot spy on you as much.
    Shop like a SMART billionaire!

    (again, sorry this post is not about Pokémon, I will try to think... blah blah blah..)

    I feel like, even if the rich paid more taxes, the poor class would still be poor because tax money goes to the government. How can the government have the best interest of different people with different needs?? Instead of saying "Tax the rich", why not use the same tax advantages as the rich?

    (sorry this post is not about Pokémon; I will try to think of something related next time)

    I think card breaks are stupid. Why would I hire someone else to open my packs for me when I can open them myself? Not to mention having to wait few weeks for the spots to fill up before the break can even happen. Waste of time if you ask me.
    What do y'all think?

    Not only that, the person that opens your pack could either switch your card with his/her lesser mint condition and also you don't know where their hands have been.

    So true! There was a Pokémon card break seller on WhatNot who scammed a customer by illegally switching the Umbreon Vmax pull with a lesser value card. Like wtf!
    VitaminD3

    If I have to guess, people agree to have their packs open live for bragging rights which is asinine. “Oh, I am xxxxxx and my pack pulled a very rare card live, hate me ladies”. Yeah, if you honestly believe that these individual wouldn’t scam you to some degree then you deserved to be scammed for being a fool.

    What is the obsession with Van Gogh Pikachu?? It's not playable in competitive decks and it depicts a dead person. If it's just for the value, there are many other cards that are worth more like Umbreon Vmax alt art or Gold Star Charizard.

    No worry, my reason for the obsession stems from being a one of a kind. People spent thousands on Ancient Mew before it got released internationally.

    OK, that makes me feel better. I'm surprised Ancient Mew is still relatively cheap. Guess the demand is low.

    lol I thought that Ancient Mew was like the Holy Grail when I was younger. I got one for like $5 from a Comic-Con and it immediatley was put in a fancy little case.
